Amy Schumer won’t take photographs with fans anymore

Amy Schumer shared the details on an Instagram post. “Seventy percent of women in the United States are a size 14 or above, and that’s technically “plus-size, ‘ so you’re taking your biggest category of people and telling them, ‘You’re not really worthy”. “You know, at first it was amusing but as the days go on, it is kind of like, wow”, he said.

Do you even say: “Smile, oh famous person”?

Schumer was in Greenville to kick off her 10-city comedy tour.

“This guy in front of his family just ran up next to me scared the s– out of me”.

While visiting Greenville, South Carolina, a man “scared the shit” out of her when he abruptly approached the comedian, she wrote. Not sure what happened to him, but it seems like it’s been a rough 24 hours for Schumer. Schumer also reiterated that the man’s harassment was “not right”. I hadn’t been aware of this small print on my tickets. Legally, one can take photos of her, but she said to stop and no, vowing not to take photos with people anymore.

But what of the man?

The fan, whose real name Leslie Brewer, spoke with Fox Carolina and told a different story. “She says I got all up in her face, and it was completely different from the video”. Such act was a great message to his kid.

I suspect there might have been more to this encounter than the snippets both have portrayed.

“I did it in a non-threatening way”, Brewer said.

Schumer’s ban might not be all-encompassing.

But she wants to be perfectly clear about something here: “I don’t owe you anything”.

“I was saying stop and no”, Schumer continued.

Despite the differing accounts, the point remains: Fans do not own celebrities, and not everyone is stoked to take a selfie with someone at any given moment.
